  • First of the Old Trusts Dealt with by the Commissioners Under Mr
    CHAPTER IX. THE GIRLS' GRAMMAR SCHOOL. first of the old trusts dealt with by the commissioners under Mr. Forster's Endowed Schools Act of r87o, was the Free Grammar School of Charles II. at Bradford. In the scheme drawn up by the commissioners for the management of the boys' school, two of the clauses run as follows :-"This foundation shall consist of two branches, one for the education of boys, and the other for the education of girls." "From and after the date of this scheme, or within three years from such elate, the governors shall appropriate the annual sum of £zoo, and on the determination or failure of the pension hereafter contem­ plated for the present schoolmaster or that assigned to the late usher, the further sum of £so, for the establishment and maintenance of a girls' school, and such school shall be organised, supported, and managed in accordance with directions to be hereafter set forth in a supplementary scheme." The supplementary scheme here alluded to was drafted, after careful consideration, by the committee of the Ladies' Educational Association ; and it is mainly to this committee that Bradford is indebted for the Girls' Grammar School. It was felt, how­ ever, that the endowment allotted to the girls by the Commission was insufficient for the establishment of a first-grade school, and therefore the ladies and gentlemen most interested in the movement raised subscriptions to the amount of £sooo, through the generosity of the leading men of Bradford, notably Sir Titus Salt, Bart., Henry Brown, Esq. , and Isaac Holden, Esq.

  • Proceedings Wesley Historical Society
    Proceedings OF THE Wesley Historical Society Editor: E. ALAN ROSE, B.A. Volume XLIII December 1982 THE MANTLE OF ELIJAH Nineteenth-century Primitive Methodism and Twentieth-century Pentecostalism [This article is based on a lecture delivered to the Lincolnshire Methodist History Society at Sleaford on IOth October 1980. Many of the references are to places and events in Lincolnshire, but the author has little reason to believe that Primitive Methodism in Lincolnshire was so unique as to render these references useless to readers in other parts of Britain.] y concern in this article (hence its title) is to pose the ques­ tion: Has the spirit of nineteenth-century Primitive Method­ Mism come to rest on twentieth-century Pentecostalism? Not that one would want to be suspected of suggesting that Primitive Methodism has been taken up by a whirlwind into heaven! But it does seem that something of the spirit of the one has been taken up by the other. I must go on to say that I am in no sense suggesting a theological comparison. In some ways the two movements seem quite close in their theological bases, but that is not the point of the comparison I wish to make. Clearly their particular beliefs about the Holy Spirit lead Pentecostalists to assess the Spirit's gifts differ­ ently, giving them a dominant concern to seek and give evidence of the more spectacular gifts, notably that of speaking in tongues. This emphasis is quite different from that of Primitive Methodism­ although I should be very interested to know whether Pentecostal­ type manifestations accompanied early Primitive Methodism.

SUMMARY This report informs members of Keighley’s first Big 10K event. 2. BACKGROUND 2.1 On Sunday March 16th 2008 a broad cross section of Keighley Community took part in the inaugural event of a new type of 10K run on a multi-terrain route deliberately chosen to connect parks and communities in Keighley via the network of paths, backroads, ginnels and through routes that are characteristic of the town of Keighley. 2.2 The route primarily used “walkway” routes that have been established via the SportKeighley “walkways” initiative. This forms part of the wider “Keighley Integrated” or “Ki” initiative that also includes cycling (“cyKle”) and skating (“sKate”). 2.3 All of the initiatives, like the BIGK 10K event itself, use the “Red K” designation that is designed to promote all that is good about Keighley. 2.4 The 16th March date coincided with the national Sport Relief Mile initiative and thus a number of events were also planned around this.

    2 The news that the old sewerage works at Esholt are to be reborn as a countryside park was initially welcomed by local residents. Plans subsequently released by the owners of the site, Yorkshire Water, may not be quite so well received though with a mix of industrial units and housing – 150 in total - offering a different perspective. This is one of the last truly open spaces in the district where we can walk and ride, young and old. It now looks as if it will become just another stretch of urbanization down an Aire Valley covered in concrete. Every inch of this plan needs inspecting with full consultations, not a solitary meeting to proclaim all is well. This is all we have left; everything else has gone, thanks to the useless politicians – local and national - and if this goes then there is no return, nowhere to go. For me personally it does not matter, my walking days are almost over but my kids and grandchildren have been lucky enough to have enjoyed climbing trees and all the things I did as a youth in Thackley. For future generations it will not be available. Don’t let it happen. Local elections are looming in May and soon we will have leaflets promising us all the Earth from those wishing to get at seat down at City Hall. Ask direct questions of these people; who are you? What will you do for us? How much do you know about this area? Many councillors live nowhere near where they claim to represent.

  • The Calverley Information
    CALVERLEY HISTORY NOTES An aerial view of Calverley in the 1930’s would show the home of Dr. Hughes (Shaftesbury House) on Capel Street with the Trinity Methodist Church and Sunday School (now demolished) located in Clarke Street. One would also see Town Gate as well as Blackett Street on the left and the steep pitched roof of the Mechanic’s Institute which was originally opened in 1874. Church corner would highlight the Georgian style houses located around the church. As the amount of auto traffic increased over the years, it became necessary to widen the corner. As late as the 1930’s there were still a fair number of open fields surrounding this area, most of which have since been built upon. Calverley Bridge was originally built in 1710 by Sir Walter Calverley and had to be rebuilt in 1775 after the original weir was damaged by a rather severe storm. This bridge dates from the 13th century and had lasted for more than 650 years before ultimately being lost in the Second World War. Looking upstream from the bridge, one would see on the right the site of the former Calverley Mill which was originally a corn mill but later becoming a fulling mill. This site was also demolished, but was located on what is now known as Mill Lane. The Holly Park Mill Company, which is located on the edge of the village, commenced production in February 1868. Its first “mill engineer” was Stancliffe Cordingley. As a commercial operation, its work consisted of scouring, scribbling, spinning and spilling, especially, however, for other firms renting the premises within the mill.

    Proceedings OF THE Wesley Historical Society Editor: E. ALAN ROSE, B.A. Volume XLIII September 1982 METHODIST UNION HIS article is intended to give the general reader (of whom there are many in our Society) a broad view of the events lead­ T ing to Methodist Union in 1932. It is not a scholarly essay; no original research has gone into its preparation; no new discoveries are announced, no startling revelations to disturb or excite a waiting world. As I began my ministry in the year that Union took place, I am one of a dwindling band who can draw on memory as well as history to recall what it meant, fifty years ago, to be a Wesleyan, a Primitive or a United Methodist. Should the aforesaid" general reader" desire to learn more about the Union negotiations, he is recommended to turn to John Kent's The Age of Disunity (1966), Robert Currie's Methodism Divided (1968), or John T. Wilkinson's Arthur Samuel Peake (1971). I write before the publication of Rupert Davies's Conference Lecture on Methodist Union, but I have had by me his essay The Church ill our Times (1979). I am still old-fashioned enough to suppose that the masculine in­ cludes the feminine, so when I use the term "layman" or its pronoun in a general sense, I include" laywoman". There is no need to invent the clumsy word " lay person ". I. Union implies division Methodist Union can be understood only against the background of its divisions, numerous and complicated though they be. Some of these were secessions which wounded and diminished the parent body, for they were protests against its polity and procedure.

  • Thesis for Westminster Conference
    Laura Bronner Property and Power: MPs’ Asset Type and Support for Democratization Property and Power: MPs' Asset Type and Support for Democratization in the 1867 UK Reform Act Laura Bronner, Nuffield College Working Paper Abstract Influential current theories of democratization (Acemoglu & Robinson, 2000, 2006; Boix, 2003) emphasize elites’ fear of the redistributive consequences of democratic reform as an important limit on democratization. They also argue that capital-owners are less likely than landowners to fear redistribution, as their assets are more mobile and thus easier to protect from expropriation. This thesis uses the 1867 Reform Act in the UK, which doubled the enfranchised population to include large parts of the urban working class, as a case study. It uses an original dataset on the 1865-8 House of Commons to test the claim that asset type matters for democratization, and finds that in fact, the most substantively important variable for votes on democratization was party, which has been neglected by the distributional conflict literature. While material interests, particularly landowning, matter, they are crucially mediated by partisan electoral interests. Indeed, while landowning Liberals are less democratic than non-landowning Liberals, this effect is not present among Conservatives. Using a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, this thesis contends that this effect is due to partisan electoral and material interests reinforcing one another in an anti-democratic direction among Conservatives, while for landowning

  • Appendix 1 Report of the Monuments Review Steering Group to Bradford Council Executive, November 2020
    Appendix 1 Report of the Monuments Review Steering Group to Bradford Council Executive, November 2020 1. Introduction from Charles Dacres, Chair I was honoured to be invited by Cllr Susan Hinchcliffe to lead this independent review of the statues and monuments across Bradford District, in response to the focus that the Black Lives Matter movement has brought to statues across the country, and who and what they represent. This is important work; statues and monuments are highly visible local landmarks that both local residents and visitors recognise as key symbols of our District’s heritage and values. We often take them for granted as part of our everyday local landscapes, but this review has allowed us the opportunity to reflect on what and who our local monuments represent, to challenge and question whether they are appropriate in the context of our proud and diverse District, and to start to consider how we would want to represent our District’s heritage and values for the future. On behalf of the Steering Group I am very pleased to present below the findings of Phase 1 of this review, which set out to audit as comprehensively as possible our existing statues and monuments, and to consider their links to slavery, colonialism and Black Lives Matter. We are indebted to Penny Green, Heritage Learning Officer, for her support to the group in carrying out the background research. Charles Dacres 2. Executive Summary and key findings From the outset, the Steering Group have been unanimous in their view that we should not seek to erase any aspect of our history or to tear down existing monuments, but instead focus on telling a more complete story about the people our monuments represent, present all the facts honestly, and seek to educate people about them (especially younger people).
